Barbershops and Salons closed by Amanat-Al-Riyadh
Monday brings another sad news for people of Saudi Arabia. However, the action is compulsory to prevent any Coronavirus outbreak. It will also safeguard people working at these shops but it leaves a huge question on how they will get money to feed their families. As most of the employees in these businesses are hand-to-mouth. We hope this temporary ban and COVID19 issue will be solved soon so people can go back to routine.
